Great British Biscooti Co

Great British Biscotti: So much more than a quick scoff or on-the-hoof nibble! – this is a biscotti with Great British roots & extra swagger

The Great British Biscotti Co (GBBC) was born towards the beginning of 2016, a small but noble artisan movement that believed above all else that the craggy, double-baked biscotti of proud Italian descent simply wasn’t fulfilling its full taste potential.

Such thinking is unquestionably a little left of centre, but in no way a snub to the traditional almond-themed biscotti we all love and adore.

Whilst our vision is unquestionably to provide biscotti with the perfect foodie forum to showcase its full flavour spectrum, we’d be wrong not to acknowledge the special relationship that exists between everyone’s favourite almond offering, a sumptuous coffee and any well-informed biscuit bon viveur.

Above all, we believe there’s now a real appetite for substantial ‘special occasion’ biscuits made with best-in-class ingredients; wonky, irregular, hand-crafted biscuits that provide the perfect setting for all manner of fantastical sweet and savoury flavours to succeed.

BISCOTTI HERITAGE

Biscuit myth tells us that the humble biscotti began life as the Roman Legionnaire’s biccie of choice, the perfect knapsack nibble to make marching and invasions a little less onerous. The robust, double-baked nature of this substantial bickie meant that their iconic crimson tunics were spared any unsightly crumbs, which is never a good look if you’re a marauding warrior.

Today we Brits have an enviable track record of being able to put our own unique spin on even the most everyday item and as a long-standing nation of biscuit lovers we always knew that this biscuit barrel classic had more to offer.

N.B. it’s worth noting that all our Biscotti are also baked to ensure they are not as hard as traditional Biscotti so they can be enjoyed as a snack anytime and not necessarily with a hot drink"
